2.4 mil to settle, or paying your lawyers potentially for years to fight the lawsuit and maybe lose?

Sure, its probably the right thing for Yuzu, but whether its right for the emulation community as a whole? I guess we will see, at least there is no legal precident being set.

I think the 'good thing' here is that Yuzu isn't going away (not that that would really happen with the way the internet works), but yes there is always the potential for more lawsuits. They surely based this off a cost/benefit for themselves and not for the rest of the country.
